What is this commotion
that is draining my emotion
is there a secret potion
for getting your devotion
Eternity is missing e
psychology has got a p
there is no breaking free
it is all just stressing me
Is there any wonder
so many people ponder
life that is way yonder
I’m dizzy with the maunder
Tired of all the clatter
sick of all the chatter
so many are Mad hatters
no substance and no matter
What purpose and what gain
for drinking from your pain
does it wash away the strain
from all the mad refrain
The first will be the last
hunger overtakes the fast
imprisoned by my past
and stuck in a cruel caste

God:30
“I am going on my walk with God”
is all that was said
before the back door slammed.
She would leave
this way every day at
what had become known
as God:30
It was always the same
and it went on this way
until the time turned over time
turned over time.
“I am going on my walk with God”
became the predictable phrase.
God:30 came
the back door would slam
and once again she was gone.
On one peculiar day
time missed a beat
and God:30 came
without any warning.
The backdoor slammed
and that familiar phrase
was heard in a breath.
She was gone
and the atmosphere had a void
that was filled with silence.
…the time stopped turning time
over time …over time …
And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. - Genesis 5:24
